Many carpet owners aren't aware that such a thing as carpet repairs even exists. This leads them to making rash decisions regarding their carpets based on damage they can't imagine being fixed. Unfortunately, unless carpet owners get in touch with us first, there is no way to let them know that much of the damage a carpet suffers can be repaired. The scope of repairs we regularly perform on clients' carpets is wide. Carpet repair is an umbrella term referring to damage accumulated through wear-and-tear as well as accidents. We'll list some of our most common repairs below.

Carpet Patches

For ripped carpet, large stains, or holes, our technicians can employ patching techniques. Carpet patching involves taking an undamaged piece of carpet from either a remnant you may have left over from your original installation or from the back of a closet or other unnoticeable area. The damaged area is cut away and replaced with a section of new carpet, leaving the damaged area looking brand new. Many of our customers ask if they can purchase additional carpet instead of removing a portion of their existing carpet. Unfortunately, the answer is "no."  Dye lots vary from roll to roll, so even if you purchase the very same carpet, in the same "color" by the same manufacturer, the actual coloring will inevitably be differ from your original carpet. The best option for seamlessly new looking carpet is to use a piece already in your home. 

A carpet can suffer holes for a multitude of reasons. Pets – particularly dogs – can sometimes decide to chew off a spot in the carpet, leaving behind a gnarly hole. A dropped cigarette or clothes iron can easily burn through a carpet instead of just leaving a mark. Whatever the case may be, a carpet hole is nasty to look at and can easily make people feel they have no choice but to replace perfectly-good carpet.

The way we repair a carpet depends on various factors. Sometimes, the carpet's manufacturer will provide an extra piece of carpet precisely for these situations, getting a piece from a closet that is rarely used, or you, the carpet owner, might have one from a previous trimming job. Here, it's a simple matter of taking measurements and then sewing or gluing the patch inside, although you'll need someone who knows what they're doing if you'd like to achieve a seamless surface. Other cases might call for strategic trimming of the carpet on one of its sides to get the extra fabric needed. Either way, doing the job yourself can yield sub-par results and create a less-than-satisfactory appearance.

Carpet Stretching

Over time, carpet stretches leaving noticeable lumps, bumps, and wrinkles.  Not only is wrinkled carpet unsightly, but it can also be a dangerous safety hazard.  Loose sagging carpet can be remedied by carpet re-stretching.  The Lone Star Carpet Care technicians are equipped with special tools and techniques designed specifically to smooth out lumps, bulges, and winkles to restore a brand-new appearance to your loose carpet.  The carpet re-stretching process can also be used to fix loose or frayed carpet seams. 

A carpet that needs re-stretching isn't as big of an issue as some of the others, but it's best done as soon as ripples are spotted. They have a habit of expanding and multiplying, and before you know it, your carpet ends up looking like a mess.

No matter the size of your carpet, we can guarantee that there won't be a single pesky ripple left by the time we're done. Don't be fooled by how easy the job looks – oftentimes, not only will you not accomplish much by doing it yourself, you might even create some new ones in the process. This is one of our most standard procedures, and it's one that our clients should never postpone.

Seam Repair

Is your carpet falling apart at the seams...literally?  The seam repair experts at Lone Star Carpet Care in San Antonio can repair your seams making them virtually invisible. No matter what your carpet repair dilemma,  rest assured that the carpet cleaning and carpet repair experts at Lone Star Carpet Care in San Antonio have the carpet repair solution for you.  From carpet patches, to carpet re-stretching, to carpet dyeing: we've got you covered.  Call to schedule your appointment today.

Seams are a problem with wall-to-wall carpets, especially in multiple rooms. Carpet owners usually want a seamless (so to speak) transition between rooms, but it can be difficult to accomplish. We'll bring all the edges of your carpets together in such a way that not even you will be able to tell where one piece ends and another begins.

Doors present another issue here. In fact, they are the main reason why two pieces of a carpet become separated over time. It's not just that – even a single carpet can become frayed on the sides due to the constant sliding of doors. After we're done fixing the edges of the carpet, you'll no longer have to worry about it happening again.

Other Types of Carpet Repair

As previously mentioned, cigarettes or clothes irons sometimes aren't going to burn through the carpet, but will instead leave a mark that's impossible to remove without the right tools. The approach differs from removal of standard, liquid-induced stains quite a bit, but our results are still very good despite the damage done.

Furniture indentations are another common problem – people are rarely willing to sacrifice their intended layout of a room, even when it compromises their carpet. They only start wishing they did things differently once they've decided to redecorate and move things around. Other than bite marks, pets can also cause fraying throughout the carpet by stratching it with their claws – carpet owners rarely have the patience and knowledge to remedy the situation.

Many will tell you that carpets can't be repaired, or that your carpet is beyond fixing. Sometimes, these people will even be so-called professionals in the carpet cleaning business. Don't listen to them! You'd be amazed by the results we've achieved on people's carpets thanks to our years of experience, patience and persistence.

We care about your carpets, and we'll do everything in our power to make them seem new again. Never think about throwing your carpet out until a Lone Star Carpet Care professional tells you that it's beyond help. In 95% of the cases or more, it won't come to this, and you'll be glad you waited and gave us a chance to help you.
